Voyage of the Story Shell

Voyage of the Story Shell

Discover the illuminating tall tale of how The Story Shell arrived in Barnsley, many miles from the sea.

This unique art space by international artists Suzie Devey and Steve Messam has been transformed into a multi-artform experience featuring music, projections and animations co-created by The Colour Foundry artists Fabric Lenny, Urban Projections and Nicolas Lewis, with young people from St Mary’s C of E Primary School.

Commissioned by Barnsley Libraries and supported by Barnsley Civic for Barnsley Bright Nights.
